1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectivesCollagen-VI-related myopathies are caused by both dominant and recessive mutations in the three collagen-VI-related genes (COL6A1, COL6A2, and COL6A3) and present as two different major clinical entities; Bethlem myopathy and Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy.

methodsIn this study, we evaluated the clinical, pathologic, and genetic features of 8 patients with Bethlem myopathy from 3 families.

resultsWe inspected disease course differences with age and mutations. Different variants in COL6A1 and COL6A2 genes were detected. Muscle MRI of the lower limbs showed a specific pattern of muscle involvement with variable severity of fatty infiltration. One family had essential hypertension.

conclusionGenotype-phenotype correlation studies are critical in determining gene or mutation-targeted therapies, patient follow-up, severity and progression prediction, and genetic counselling.
